Hi, been reading feedback and implementing the ones that I think would be good to add. This release brings a favourites bar to the drawer, the ability to set a default page, More text size options, and an overhauled settings page.

Still on the hunt for a new app icon, if you know a designer please let me know!

Next things I want to tackle are improving the markdown editor and adding in user/community/instance block lists.

Finally thank you for your continued support! The feedback has been very helpful in improving Connect.

Changelog:

  • Added option for enabling notifications across all signed in accounts
  • Added Text overrides for comments and post titles
  • Added option for disabling swipe and markdown editor
  • Added favourites to sidebar. These are account specific and different accounts can have different favourites.
  • Added option to set default page
  • Added an option to hide the bottom bar on posts for smaller cards
  • Added animations when expanding a comment thread
  • Added option to reverse the comment interactions (tap and long press)
  • Added password reveal button on sign in
  • Added some spacing between posts to visually break them up
  • Removed domain name text on list views thumbnails
  • Added a search option scoped to the current community you are in
  • Added option for high refresh displays
  • Changed FAB icon in post details to a reply icon
  • Changed collapsing comments so the comment body also collapses
  • Fixed a bug with the comment body not showing when editting
  • Fixed a crash on foldable devices
  • Fixed a bug where your own comments would appear to have more points than they really had

    One thing that still really bothers me is a lack of instance identification. In the list of subscriptions, I’ve got 2 “gaming”, 2 “asklemmy”, 3 “technology”. Usernames and community names also seem to be missing instance addresses, which are important if for no other reason that different instances have different moderation rules.

    Is this an oversight or does Connect just not want to embrace federation at all?

      It’s coming! The app has only been released for about 5 days so please bear with me.
